Section 34-23A-55 - Duties of physician in addition to common law

The physician's common law duty to determine that the physician's patient's consent is voluntary and uncoerced and informed applies to all abortion procedures. The requirements expressly set forth in §§ 34-23A-53 to 34-23A-62, inclusive, that require procedures designed to insure that a consent to an abortion is voluntary and uncoerced and informed, are an express clarification of, and are in addition to, those common law duties.
